Ormiston Sandwell Community Academy is located in the Metropolitan Borough of Sandwell, and in very close proximity to the centre of Birmingham. It is a slightly larger than average, 11–16 co-educational academy with approximately 1,200 students. It has grown over the last few years and is now full and oversubscribed in every year group for the seventh consecutive year. The academy’s reputation locally is excellent. OSCA was graded as a good academy, for the third time in 2023.
The academy has been recognised with a myriad of awards over recent years. These include the Investors In People Gold Award, The Quality In Careers Standard Gold Award, The Basic Skills Quality Mark, and the Artsmark Gold Award. This is a fantastic time to join the vibrant and caring learning community at OSCA. Its strong code of values guides its work and creates a secure and safe environment where all students can thrive and succeed. Staff are committed to ensuring every student reaches their full potential by having the highest aspirations and a commitment to both academic and personal excellence. Students speak positively about the “strong sense of community” at the academy and “the support they receive from the teachers”, with a Year 8 student describing life at OSCA as being part of “one big family.”
We are seeking a highly motivated, passionate and supportive member of senior staff to join our busy pastoral team.
As Senior Behaviour & Attendance Support Officer, you will provide guidance and direction to our Behaviour & Attendance Support Officers, managing the day-to-day co-ordination of the team and ensuring all necessary procedures are followed. The successful applicant will support the Head of Year; ensuring students’ attend school, are on time every day and are supported - ensuring their behaviour is demonstrating that they are ready to learn. You will take the lead in contacting parents/carers where children have been or who are absent from school, creating positive relationships and building trust between home and school. As a highly visible member of staff, you will ensure students are ready to learn by creating a culture of high expectation where students know the values and expectations of behaviour. You will be the first port of call in dealing with incidents of poor behaviour.
